CHEM 1M Information—Fall 2007

CHEM 1M Syllabus pdf (subject to updates)  or word

 

If you have not been able to enroll in the class due to space limitations, I suggest that you come to lab sections that fit your schedule the 1st two class meetings.  If you find an open spot in lab, you may be able to add the course.  The instructor (R. Roland) must authorize the add.  I’d like to do anything I can to help you get into the course!

Make sure the TA records your name, ID, email, and section.  Permission numbers should be available from the instructor the 2nd full week.  It is your responsibility to obtain permission to add the class from the instructor.

Labs start October 2nd

DO NOT MISS THE 1st DAY OR YOU MIGHT BE DROPPED.

Make-ups must be approved by the instructor (documented medical emergencies, UC away games, or family funeral only) and must be completed no later than the following week.
